The A.R.T./New York Theatres Rental Subsidy Fund

ABOUT THE RENTAL SUBSIDY FUND

The purpose of the Rental Subsidy Fund is to ensure that the A.R.T./New York Theatres are affordable rental spaces for our members in the long term. With generous underwriting from the A.R.T./New York Board of Directors, foundations, and individual donors, the Rental Subsidy Fund will ensure that our weekly rental rates remain affordable, and our rental fees are far below the true cost of operating the theatres and providing the staff support and state-of-the-art equipment that our renters will receive. Our goal is for the theatres to be made available for the community in accordance with A.R.T./New York's values.

Application

Members who meet the eligibility criteria may apply for the subsidy year-round for any available dates. Applications are reviewed by a peer panel, which will meet monthly. The first panel meeting will be in October to review applications received by September 30th. Afterwards,all applications received by the end of a given month will receive a response by the end of the following month at the latest (i.e. an application received by November 29 with receive a determination by December 31).

Applicants who wish to reapply after an unsuccessful application for subsidy may only do so after receiving feedback on their application from A.R.T./New York staff. Please reach out to Hope Chavez at [email protected] to schedule a feedback call if you have not already done so.

Narrative Statement Review

Applicants who wish to receive comments on a draft of their narrative before submitting their application may send a draft to Programs Manager Hope Chavez at [email protected]. Please review the guidelines for this process in our Grant Guidelines.
